Heather Evans

Educational Background:AA from Clinton Community College and a BA from the University of Iowa in Communication
Studies.

Why Community College?:I know from experience that community college provides the opportunity for all people
to enrich their lives through learning. I want people to know that when I talk about
community college being accessible, affordable and a reality that it is the truth.

I was a Paul B. Sharar Foundation Scholarship recipient when I attended Clinton Community
College and my experience was enveloped by people who wanted to see me succeed.

I am proud to be able to work with such a dedicated team of professionals that are
here every day to help each person recognize his/her path in life. Attending community
college changed my life. I believe it can change yours.

The best thing about working with students:It is my desire to help students recognize the potential in themselves. I value the
differences in each individual student and I learn so much from our interactions.
Every life has a story.

Other random information:After graduating from the University of Iowa, I worked in Student Life and as the
Director of Career Services at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona. From there
I worked as the Job Location Developer at California State University, San Bernardino
in San Bernardino, California. Finally, before coming back home, I served as the Coordinator
of Student Activities and as the Director of Student Life at Front Range Community
College in Boulder County, Colorado.

Serving students is my passion. I absolutely love providing opportunities for students
to recognize that greater success comes from getting involved in your campus and in
your community.

I love watching sports with friends. College football and MLB are my favorites and
I’ll also be cheering on the Denver Nuggets. I adore my family and Ricky, my Blue
Tick Harrier and Dudley, my Miniature Beagle.
